Does Jeopardy require contestants who apply to have a college diploma or graduate? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I heard that ever since Jeopardy updated it's contestant's rules Jeopardy requires people to have a college diploma or be a college graduate to be a contestant on the show and I want to know if this rule is true? I do know that Jeopardy has an updated limit on how many days a contestant can be a champion after Ken Jennings's exciting Jeopardy winning streak

Wrong. No limit.

(I’d also doubt the college requirement, but I don’t have time to research it and prove it)

Yeah they originally had a win limit but removed it shortly before Ken showed up. It's kind of ironic.

Hi, Bestie! I bat they do have a college degree rule, but do not publicize it. I always see Jeopardy shows with college students, but have never seen one with trade schools in it. I can prove it if we were able to see how many jeopardy contestants have college degrees. I bet 99.9%.
